Why do two sims not have lifetime wishes?

They’re teens and they have no lifetime wish, but their teen sister has one. I couldn’t see a way to add one either. I also can’t find the change lifetime wish reward either for their mom since hers is complete

The change lifetime wish reward can only be used when the original LTW has not been completed. There is no provision in the game for giving a sim a second LTW after already completing one. You can only do that with a mod.
Been a while since I’ve played. I used the lifetime reward to give them s wish. Now I wish I hadn’t
It doesn't always occur, but it sometimes happens.

I have no way to remove their wishes now
You mean the teen who already has a lifetime wish? You can replace it with the LTR that changes them, but that's very expensive. Or better yet, you can use MasterController with MasterController Cheats installed to change the lifetime wish anytime you want without using points. I think you can use that on the mom too.
When those mods are installed, just click on your sim > nraas > master controller > intermediate > lifetime wish.

I gave the two who had no wishes, wishes using the reward. They're the ones I'd be interested in removing again
I tried. The lifetime wish section is missing for them
A while back, I edited a couple of teens' outfits in MC CAS, so I could check out their sliders. The girl came out with a different LTW than what I'd assigned her as a child, although the boy's stayed the same. (Neither had completed it.) I always thought it was because the girl's wish—Renaissance Sim—had nothing to do with her traits; she'd rolled it when she hit level 7 of her first skill as a child. (The boy's wish, Perfect Private Aquarium, played into his Angler trait.) So I figured the game had selected the girl a new LTW from among those that would have been displayed based on her traits, even if I couldn't see the wishes.
I couldn't replicate this when I tried later, perhaps because by the time I got around to testing, she'd already maxed two of the three required skills. (The boy's total was zero when he went into CAS.) But I didn't have any trouble reassigning her original LTW via MC.
ETA: what happens when you turn them into YA in CAS, change the LTW and then turn them into a teen again?
I never thought of that! Going to try it.
I'm playing a family where the teen already had a life time wish, no idea how he got it and I wanted to change it.
@JoAnne65 I never thought of that either. It would be neat if it worked. Otherwise, there's always the old-fashioned (i.e. modless) solution, which is to cheat up the LTR points until a sim can buy another "Change Lifetime Wish" reward. To the OP: If you don't already know how to do this, you need to enable cheats at the Main Menu, before you load your save. Bring up the cheats console (crtl-shift-c) and enter "testingcheatsenabled true" without quotes. Once you load the save, you'll be able to crtl-click on a spot on the Lifetime Happiness tab of the user interface. The correct spot is between the treasure chest icon and the number of points; it might take a couple of tries to get it right.
As far as removing an assigned LTW without replacing it with a new one though, I have no idea if that's even possible.
For a teen or younger, yes enter either MC's version of CAS or EA's using testingcheatsenabled, change them temporarily to YA, select or change the LTW, set them back to their original age stage, save. Just tested this on teens and children and it worked on both versions of CAS including without MC Integration in place. It may take a short while after doing this for the LTW to show up on the sim's info panel if they are active. Be sure not to save the sim without setting their age stage back or you may have a rather deformed looking YA on your hands.
Note that the testingcheats CAS method, without MC Integration in play, may subject the sim to a random age change (number of sim days) within their current age stage as EA's version of CAS is so famous for doing.
For those already using MC anyway with the MC Cheats module, it's much simpler to use its LTW command on sims in any age stage. But the point is, LTWs can be set or changed on any sims without mods as long as they haven't fulfilled their LTW already.
